Very scrappy game not helped by playing on a cow paddock
AFL and NRL grounds are not made for this

Assume a draw doesn’t guarantee us anything?
If we draw and Saudi Arabia don’t win we are pretty much through.

No but dependant on other results we could still go through on this match day

Japan are just in cruise control, they’re light years ahead of us in every department.
They actually take football seriously, we treat it like a piece of dog ■■■■.
Saudi play at 2am.
So we might make it with a draw
FWIW Brazil hasn’t qualified for the World Cup yet either
They’re very disciplined
Are you forgetting about Indonesia?
They have a pathetic China and could move within 2 points of us after this round
Indonesia away to Japan in the last game. They could turn up hungover and would still easily beat the ■■■■■■■ joko’s
Not disagreeing but was just pointing out that we mathematically might not seal a spot until the final day regardless of how the Saudis go tonight
About time Riles came on
So frustrating seeing the team consciously decide to recycle the ball through through the back 4 when a counter briefly looked on. Have they been told to play for a draw? Have only watched the last 10 mins but it looks dismal.
Mitch Duke will save us
I don’t see why we are using Ryan to play out from the back and then not play out from the back. I know it’s his way of playing but if we aren’t actually going to use his strengths here than maybe it’s time to give another keeper a go.
I watched a lot of ■■■■ English Championship teams play this season and they well and truly have Australia covered on what they have dished up tonight.

I think I would honestly prefer a 49 year old Mark Viduka out there instead of any of our other attacking options.
Are we even playing to try and score a goal?
lol, how did he miss that
Should be 1-0 down
